WonderfulMy toddler Grandchildren, boy & girl, really love this book. We had been already saying the story everyday at naptime. Now that I bought the book it really has increased our, never mind just them, our total enjoyment of it. We will continue to enjoy it for years to come. We all totally recommend it.
